The paper proposes using two-photon exchange interference in e+e- to (pi pi)(pi pi) to access chiral-odd dimeson GDAs that encode spin-orbit correlations in spin-zero mesons.

abstract
We perform a QCD analysis of the exclusive production of two mesons in gamma^* gamma collisions in the kinematical domain of large photon virtuality Q and small hadronic invariant mass W. This reaction is dominated by a scale invariant mechanism which factorizes into a perturbative subprocess, gamma^* gamma --> q qbar or gamma^* gamma --> g g, and a generalized two-meson distribution amplitude. We develop in detail the phenomenology of this process at e^+ e^- colliders. Using a simple model for the two-pion distribution amplitude, based on its general properties, we estimate the cross section for the kinematics accessible at BABAR, BELLE, CLEO and LEP.

pQCD calculations predict ~90% longitudinal polarization in B_c to J/psi or psi(2S) plus rho or K* mediated light meson pairs, with one branching ratio ratio matching LHCb at 2.67 vs 2.80.
